Abstract

See full text

A compression strain gauge transducer assembly (10) includes a sensing member (14) that receives a strain gauge transducer (16) within a counterbored hole (26) through a head (18) and shank (20) of the sensing member. An inner pilot end (28) of the sensing member hole receives a pilot (40) of the transducer with flat annular seats (30) and (40) of the hole and the transducer engaged in a manner that provides accurate readings of compression loads in association with the pilot construction. An intermediate portion (46) of the transducer (16) has outer surfaces (48) that define a square cross section with strain gauges (50) mounted on the outer surfaces axially inward from a threaded outer transducer portion (52) received by a threaded outer portion (34) of the sensing member hole (26). Wires (54) extend from the strain gauges (50) through a wire passage (58) in the threaded outer portion (52) of the transducer to an electrical connector (38) that facilitates the electrical reading of compression loading applied to a distal end (24) of the sensing member shank.
